Strategy2010Economic researchers are assuming that the economic and capital market framework conditions will improve on a sustainable basis during the second half of 2010. The S&T Group will then continue on its path of growth and will raise its market share by virtue of organic growth, as well as by consistently exploiting market potential and growth opportunities for services in high demand, and by pursuing further acquisitions. The Business Solutions and Managed Services business units are in the spotlight for these developments. For the Enterprise Systems unit, S&T is envisaging growth in line with the market, in conjunction with a considerable improvement in profitability. In 2010 S&T will again sustainably improve the company’s EBIT. The established strategic pillars of its business will contribute significantly to this: Geographic Presence S&T is currently represented in the markets of 21 countries. The geographic focus of the company is Central and Eastern Europe, as well as the D-A-CH Region (German speaking region of Europe). The S&T Group also has branch offices in China and Japan. S&T will retain these clear geographic areas of focus in the coming years. Corporate Alignment S&T creates added value for its clients along the entire IT value adding chain. The palette of offerings in the fields of IT consulting, IT solutions and IT services ranges from enterprise resource planning solutions and information lifecycle management concepts to desktop managed services and software development. S&T also plans to further expand its consulting activities, to increase its SAP and software business and to significantly grow the area of outsourcing as well as its managed and professional services. In addition, emphasis on the further development and use of detailed industrial skills and knowledge will define the coming years. Clients/Sectors S&T caters for large and medium-sized domestic and international clients with more than 250 employees. The core sectors continue to be manufacturing, telecommunications, financial services, public administration and utilities, as well as retailing. The projects for these clients are managed and realized transnationally from around 70 locations. Partners S&T works in close cooperation with selected strategic partners, for which S&T also ranks as a key partner and which, in common with S&T, are prepared to invest extensively in the successful development of the partnership. Currently S&T’s most important strategic partners include international technology companies such as HP, EMC, SAP, IBM, Microsoft, Oracle and Cisco. Staff Last but not least: as a provider of services, the company’s staff and their skills constitute the central key to success for S&T. The company annually invests approximately 3% of overall salary costs in training and further education – twice as much as the average for Austrian companies. We want to retain this level during the coming years and to continue offering our staff interesting and stimulating career and development opportunities. |
